ANTI-TIP WHEELS
The anti-tip wheels are designed to give your Jet 2 increased
stability on rough surfaces. The anti-tip wheels are preset at
the factory to a height of 1/2 in. off the ground. This setting is
for smooth surfaces or for indoor use only. If you plan on using
your Jet 2 on rough surfaces, it may be necessary to adjust the
anti-tip wheels to better suit your needs.
The anti-tip wheels may need adjustment if either of the fol-
lowing occur:
n When coming to a stop, your Jet 2 tips forward excessively.
n The anti-tip wheels constantly rub the ground.
Required Tool: 13 mm wrench
NOTE: Each drive tire must have at least 30 lbs. of air
pressure in order for the anti-tip wheels to be properly ad-
justed.
WARNING! Consult your authorized Pride pro-
vider before attempting to change the anti-tip
wheel height! Changing the anti-tip wheel
height affects handling under deceleration.
To adjust the anti-tip wheels:
1. Remove the seat and body shroud.
2. Adjust the 13 mm anti-tip adjustment nut so that the
anti-tip wheel is 1/2 to 1 inch off the ground. Turn the
nut clockwise to raise the anti-tip wheel and counter-
clockwise to lower the anti-tip wheel. See figure 21.
WARNING! The higher you raise the anti-tip
wheels, the more you increase your power
chair’s tendency to tilt forward when coming
to a stop. You can compensate for this by hav-
ing your authorized Pride provider make a
small adjustment to the pre-programmed de-
celeration setting in the controller or by mov-
ing the seat assembly further to the rear of
your power chair.
